B-

This line-up of the two British women and the two men from the Bay Area works well, and there's a relaxed, friendly, somewhat flirty air that makes even their weaker games, like March, nice to watch.  There are more examples of Greg/Sandi than Greg/Josie, including Sandi as Dr. Ruth Westheimer helping Greg with his "tennis grip" in the American Musical, and him chatting her up in Alphabet, as well as interactions between games.  But watch Tag for Greg's reaction to Josie's hand near his crotch: "This is the best blind date I've ever been on!"  There's also some Greg/Mike, especially in FATS.  And Mike and Josie of course play an engaged couple in the Musical, which is the best overall game anyway, including Greg's salute to Minnesota that refers to "The Prince Memorial Run-Off," long before that Artist died.  We even get a bit of Josie/Sandi, when Josie strokes Sandi's hair after the Musical.

Not counting the compilation, this would be the last WLIIA Toksvig episode to air, and it's not at all a bad one for Sandi to go out on.
